Today's special guest, Ioanna Georgiou, mathematics educator and author of “Mathematical Adventures!” and “Peculiar Deaths of Famous Mathematicians”, and I chat about Archimedes! In this episode, we'll attempt to answer the following questions:

What do solving a crime and streaking have in common?
How can doodling in the sand lead to murder?
What do either of these have to do with math?
